[00:00] Mozilla Thunderbird is hanging and crashing every time it starts. How can I solve this problem?
[00:00] What is going on when you see a service that has 127.0.0.1 as its source and ITS destination?
[00:00] chilli0: The MS Windows intall will overwrite the MBR and destroy grub. You will just have to fix it afterwards. See the info the others have provided you with for instructions.
[00:01] JohnSQ: It is using local host only
[00:01] JohnSQ: There are two processes which are able to connect to each other over the network, but in this case both happen to be on the same machine.
=== Jordan_U_ is now known as Jordan_U
[00:02] is the syslog message "Sep 5 00:50:37 karlw-laptop kernel: [ 6311.899471] intel ips 0000:00:1f.6: MCP power or thermal limit exceeded" normal?
[00:02] It is not a security problem?
[00:02] I didn't do anything to make this happen though. Why is it suddenly happening? There are two of em. Two different ports.
[00:03] JohnSQ: No, it's not.
[00:03] Thunderbird hangs when I start it up. How can I make it stop hanging?
[00:03] Yes, but why twice on two different ports? I don't understand
[00:03] tjubaluba: i saw that message today on a 10.10 install.. but ive not noticed any issues.
[00:03] JohnSQ: What are the processes?
[00:03] Lxndr: Don't know. Run from terminal and see if you can tell what is hanging it up.
[00:03] No program listed
[00:04] Im setting up an HTPC using ubuntu and XBMC, any suggestions on a wireless keyboard with builtin mouse functions?
[00:04] Dr_Willis, ah okey.. good to know...
[00:04] How do I see the processes?
[00:05] usr13, running 'thunderbird' from the terminal starts it normal, and no messages are reported
[00:05] tjubaluba: this is on a 10,10 setup? or a 10.04 ?
[00:05] JohnSQ: pa aux
[00:05] Lxndr: Must be that the menu item is pointing to wrong thing....
[00:06] I can't tell from that long list
[00:06] usr13, But after the normal start, it still hangs.
[00:06] Dr_Willis, im on 10.04
[00:06] Ok, still getting blank screen after reboot with flashing cursor....ubuntu won't load...tried holding shift, and other key combo...
[00:06] JohnSQ: pa aux |grep somehing
[00:07] Dr_Willis, on a brand new dell laptop
[00:07] Dr_Willis, untampered with
[00:07] Lxndr: What does it say in the terminal?
[00:07] tjubaluba: ive never noticed the message on my 10.04 setup on the same machine. I may look into it later if i reboot back to 10.04
[00:07] Lxndr: Any errors...?
[00:07] grep --color=au
[00:07] That is the process
[00:07] is there an application to organize my music directory ??
[00:07] tjubaluba: you could check the forums. there may be some info on it there
[00:07] Dr_Willis, please tell me if you find something...
[00:07] --color=auto 55317
[00:08] Dr_Willis, it hasnt posed any problems.. just curious
[00:08] usr13, No errors. It's just quiet until I finally terminate it, at which point I just see 'terminated'
[00:08] arturo393, organise how
[00:08] JohnSQ: pa aux |grep 55317
[00:08] I did that
[00:08] I got --color=auto 55317
[00:08] To reiterate, after a fresh install of Lucid Lynx, and after the first reboot, I get a blank screen with flashing cursor, there are no other operating systems on this Intel system
[00:08] usr13: organize the folders
[00:09] usr13: by albums or artist
[00:09] Lxndr: So did thunderibrd load up and function ok?
[00:09] jdawg: you may alwo want to state your video chipset. and cpu. and if its a laptop the make/model
[00:09] usr13, It functions for the first... 15 or so seconds, then it freezes.
[00:09] whenever i boot up 10.04 and start gnome, the panel never loads.
[00:09] arturo393, rhythmbox?
[00:09] I think I been hacked. Hard drive acting funny after the two 127.0.0.1 popped up
[00:10] All I did was run and close KlamAV
[00:10] duffydack: how ?
[00:10] arturo393, what do you want exactly.
[00:10] Which group should I add my user to so that I can use the lsusb command without root privileges?
[00:11] Lxndr: apt-get upgrade mozilla-thunderbird
[00:11] Lxndr, what does the terminal say when it freezes?
[00:11] JohnSQ: where did you get that number 55317 from?
[00:11] arturo393, run the program Rhythmbox and import your music and it`ll sort it into artists/abum for you
[00:11] duffydack: i want to organize my folders like itunes does
[00:11] Dr_Willis: ATI 9550 Radeon - Intel Pentium 5 CPU...Desktop, custom built
[00:11] madmike, The terminal says nothing. It is silent until I finally kill the frozen process, at which point it says 'terminated' and ends.
[00:11] Kerrick: my user can run lsusb allready without root priv.
[00:11] port number listed in active connections under Firestarter
[00:11] hmmm, tough one
[00:11] JohnSQ: you wont find the port num in the ps list
[00:12] guys, is kubuntu the same thing as ubuntu?
[00:12] no.
[00:12] Nah i heard kubuntu costs monthly fee
[00:12] Kubuntu uses the KDE environment
[00:12] Dr_Willis, whoops, my bad, I was thinking of another command.
[00:12] robsonkarls: Kubuntu = Ubuntu -gnome + kde
[00:12] JohnSQ: use something like 'sudo netstat -p | grep '
[00:12] hmm
[00:12] and no it does not cost anything.
[00:12] Lxndr: Ctrl-c does nothing?
[00:12] 127.0.0.1 source, 127.0.0.1 destination. No program listed. Service unknown. This entry exists twice. Only the port is different
[00:12] k go t it
[00:12] JohnSQ: then you get the PID... then grep for that in ps output
[00:13] usr13, ctrl-c ends the process.
[00:13] Lxndr: sudo apt-get upgrade mozilla-thunderbird
[00:13] 17456
[00:13] Says both are wineserver
[00:13] usr13, As for the upgrade, "0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded."
[00:13] Ohhh...I didn't remove them from sources...*slaps head*
[00:14] I'm messaging from my android. I am at the end of installation for kubuntu 10.10 beta and am getting "executing 'grub-install /dev/mmcblk0' failed. This is a fatal error.
[00:14] is here some sort of gnome log? im having problems starting programs from the menues
[00:14] Dr_Willis..It's an AGP ATI Radeon 9550 running on an INtel MB with Intel Pentium 5 CPU....could this have something to do with the system hanging at boot-up?
[00:14] JohnSQ: whatever. semms you hacked yourself?-)
[00:14] robsonkarls: try them both out You can easially install both on the same install. use what you like.
[00:14] They still there and haven't vanished
[00:15] But netstat says ESTABLISHED 17456/wineserver
[00:15] So I guess it is cause of wine
[00:15] jdawg: with ATI video.. its hard to tell.. definatly sounds like a video card issue.
[00:15] jdawg: i got rid of all my ATI setups ages ago.
[00:15] Lxndr: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=461857
[00:15] duffydack: or like songbird did
[00:16] Is there a way to close both?
[00:16] I don't use those ports anyways
[00:16] Dr_Wilis: Is there a forum somewhere on ATI cards and Ubuntu issues?
[00:17] arturo393, never used it..
[00:17] JohnSQ: Now here are you seeing this, in netstat ?
[00:17] JohnSQ: dunno what your're talking about concerning 'remove them from sources'. apt-get remove wine? kill 17456 for the moment?
[00:17] talking about video cards.. where can i see what driver im using?
[00:17] All of a sudden, Guake isn't showing colors in ubuntu 10.10... :(
[00:17] duffydack: ok, thanks anyway
[00:17] usr13: yes pid/name is the clue here :)
[00:18] Where should. Bootliadet be installed to?
[00:18] *bootloader
[00:18] OMG I just broke Ubuntu, I looked on the wiki for etiquette, didn't see any do I just say what I did?
[00:18] usr13, That helped! Looks like it was a theme thing.
[00:19] Lxndr: aaaahhhh ok
[00:19] arturo393, for music players like that, there are rhythmbox, banshee, clemetine, amarok, exaile.. some others I cant remember
[00:20] usr13, Hm, nevermind. It worked for a few seconds, and now is freezing again.
[00:21] hello, i hope anybody can help me. i'm looking for the easiest way to create a complete backup/image of an fully encrypted hdd (alternate install, 10.04), so i can restore this to a new hdd in case of a hdd failure (like trueimage on windows for example). i googled a long time but didn't find a simple solution, although this should be a pretty basic and simple task. of course the backup/image should be encrypted (truecrypt container?), too, otherwis
[00:21] RayArnold, clonezilla
[00:21] RayArnold, dd?
[00:21] oh encrypted.. I dunno about that.
[00:22] Does clonezilla use dd? if it does, an encrypted drive shouldn't make much difference.
[00:22] to backup encrypted, to encrypted, I`d just rsync
[00:23] RayArnold, do you want to backup TO an encrypted destination ?
[00:23] backing Up a partition may be better then backing up the whole HD also..
[00:23] if you need byte by byte copy, dd it obviously the best way to go, if you want to minimize the file say there are some tools for that too
[00:23] duffydack: yes, for example to a truecrypt container.
[00:24] I'm looking for a way to restore /var/lib after I accidentally renamed it /var/lkl . Is this a "re-install" moment?
[00:24] !info fsarchiver
[00:24] fsarchiver (source: fsarchiver): file system archiver. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.6.8-1ubuntu0.1 (lucid), package size 94 kB, installed size 280 kB
[00:24] shaheenery: boot live cd. mount the / filesystem.. rename it back.. reboot
[00:24] nice
[00:24] proberly doable without the live cd.. :) but live cds are handy
[00:25] thanks doc :)
[00:25] I got a Boot entry in my GRUB to boot a Ubuntu.iso file for super-emergancies like that
[00:25] bbl
[00:25] Anyone having issues with Guake in 10.10, with regards to bashrc coloring?
[00:25] DonSlice: see #ubuntu+1
[00:25] Dr_Willis: but i want have a full backup i can restore to a new hdd in case of a hdd failure.
[00:26] oo..kayy
[00:26] RayArnold: you can backup a partition easier often then you can a whole hd image.
[00:26] RayArnold: its a 'minor' differance . but often overlooked. :)
[00:26] shaheenery: would mv /var/lil /var/lib work?
[00:27] no because I wouldn't have permissions
[00:27] RayArnold: You could just leave the extra drive in the machine and make ghost to it every once in a while.
[00:27] and I can't sudo because /var/lib is gone..... :/
[00:28] shaheenery: Where did /var/lib go?
[00:28] to /var/lkl
[00:28] Dr_Willis: so you would use rsync for a complete system backup. does this work from a running system?
[00:28] Hello everyone, don't know why this file "debug.log" pops in my home folder again and again, any way to silent it?
[00:28] usr13: it's a notebook
[00:28] shaheenery: Did you mv /var/lib /var/lkl ?
[00:29] RayArnold: Oh, ok.. well I dono
[00:29] I sure did
[00:29] RayArnold: netbook install?
[00:29] this is what is written in that file ---> [0904/211241:ERROR:o3d/core/cross/message_queue.cc(402)] Failed to send boolean response to client handle : Broken pipe
[00:29] shaheenery: I did not think of that. However if you use something like Knoppix 6, it can see your stuff and change the name.
[00:29] greetings. im using grub2 to boot into 10.04, and i also have another distro on a secondary drive. that distro uses grub legacy, and will not let me set a custom vga widescreen mode such as vga=365. is this something grub2 handles? or am i missing the gfx driver in the 2nd distro?
[00:29] Dr_Willis: no
[00:30] yeah, basically a livecd fix
[00:30] RayArnold, you can use rsync to backup a running system, except that you can't backup .gvfs if someone is using GNOME. However, you don't want to back up .gvfs anyway.
[00:30] RayArnold: Can't he just change it back to lib ?
[00:30] that's what doc thinks too
[00:30] ?
[00:30] Hi
[00:30] hello guys i have just bought a new laptop copmaq presario cq62, having some issues with the wless network it just doesn't work
[00:31] castaway_: and what kind of wireless chip is it?
[00:31] is here some sort of gnome log? im having problems starting programs from the menues
[00:31] sec
=== sailerboy is now known as zz_sailerboy
[00:31] cast: what does iwconfig say?
[00:31] I have an Odd AT Keyboard issue.
[00:31] Take a look at rsnapshot, in the repository. It's based on rsync.
[00:31] A Keyboard of mind is sending control when it should be sending shift.
[00:31] usr13: nothing! i don't have wireless ;)
[00:31] castaway_, did you check for drivers
[00:32] castaway_: lspci |grep -i wireless
=== elijahlynn is now known as elijah
[00:32] castaway_: So iwconfig says "No wireless extensions" or...?
[00:32] usr13: thatll miss some things, like '02:00.0 Network controller: Atheros Communications Inc. Device 002b (rev 01)
[00:32] exactly
[00:33] nor lspci
[00:33] castaway_: What wireless chip is it?
[00:33] Excellent security! :)
[00:33] hmm, i'm afraid there are no simple solution
[00:33] is
[00:33] what's wrong with this: sudo chmod a+rwx -R /ect/X11/xorg.conf ? terminal returns "chmod: cannot access "path" no such file or directory
[00:34] RayArnold: if you want to backup running systems take a snapshot
[00:34] on KDE 4.3.5 if I have more than 1 monitor must I have more than one desktop activity thing?
[00:34] evansp01, I believe it's just a spelling error on IRC, but ect != etc.. could that be it? :)
[00:34] castaway: do you get the applet with a list of network connections - also try System-->Administration-->Network Tools you should see a protocol list
[00:35] cast: can i do this to an encrypted external hdd?
[00:35] usr13, don't know for sure
[00:35] RayArnold: sure, if you used LVM, or btrfs, or zfs
[00:35] castaway_: What does lspci say?
[00:35] lemme check, might have just been a spelling error here
[00:35] I just installed a fresh ubuntu server 10.04 and I am having a bit of trouble with accessing internet
[00:35] castaway_: Bring up a terminal and type lspci and hit enter.
[00:36] I'm using dhcp and the router assigns my computer an ip, but after that I can't seem to be accessing anything
[00:36] cast: and what would be the best way to restore such a snapshot?
[00:36] Prometheus: do you have an IP address? can you ping the gateway? how about the DNS server? are you able to resolve hostnames?
[00:36] Prometheus: what is in /etc/resolv.conf (after nameserver)
[00:36] RayArnold: same way as normal
[00:37] ProfessorBacon: let me check
[00:37] I have an ip address, I know that much
[00:37] Prometheus: Open a terminal window and type host av.com and hit enter.

[00:38] Prometheus, what's in /etc/resolv.conf ?
[00:39] so what are you using as a DNS server (refer to usr13's eariler question)
[00:39] usr13, FoolishOwl: resolve.conf looks like http://pastie.textmate.org/private/cngnlh027vy611adr21w

[00:43] strange: except it's on an entirely different computer that I can't ssh onto
[00:43] strange: otherwise I would =)
[00:43] Prometheus you could try a different terminal if that bothers you a lot.
[00:43] whenever i log in, into gnome, the gnome-panel program doesn't start.
[00:43] Prometheus, pastbinit.
[00:44] no wless extensions usr13
[00:44] strange: I can't access the computer from my other computers, and that computer has no access to the internets
[00:44] very hard to pastebin it =)
[00:44] usr13: right, route -n gives me just empty table now
[00:45] Prometheus, is anything else plugged in to the router, and successully networked?
[00:45] Prometheus, pastebinit is an app
[00:45] apt-get install pastebinit
[00:45] Prometheus: sudo route add default gw 192.168.1.1
[00:45] then "pastebinit filename"
